    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    I've had similar experiences with the wand, for what it's worth. If I leave to "time's up" it's still not at the heat to get full extraction. Usually I will leave it until Times Up and then put it back in again for another 10 seconds or so longer to get a little bit more heat. My wand is brand...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Thanks for all the replies everyone, can I ask what you do with the wand to get the Tempest to fully extract in one cycle? Right now I'm putting the wand on auto and leaving it until times up, but I wouldn't get a full extraction of my bud using that method? Is there anything I'm doing wrong...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Can anyone recommend some good techniques/guides to re-heat the Tempest with an Ispire Wand to avoid combustion? I like to hit at low temps, so usually my flower has bit left to give. Does anyone know how to carefully reheat? I've tried a couple of times but seem dangerous close to combusting.

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Just got my hands on an Ispire Wand after using a flame for the Tempest over the last month or so. Is there any easy to follow step-by-step guides on using the Tempest with the Wand? For instance, how deep should the Tempest be in and how many seconds it should be in for etc? Would...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    I'm starting to produce more consistent results now, using a torch from further away on higher power seems to work for me. I let it get up to visual indiciator mark 3, give it a few seconds for the heat to spread throughout the vape then hit it. I prefer to use the mouthpiece on the closed...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Thanks very much for your help, I'm starting to get a little more consistent with it. I'm noticing I prefer the mouthpiece to be closed I think. It suits my inhaling style a bit better and it heats up the bud a bit better maybe? I've started to use a bigger flame on the torch but from a...

    Do you mind explaining your process @Zow237 please? i am having similar-ish issues to the ones you were having too, I'd be interested in hearing how you achieved some better results 😀

    Sorry if I'm being a pain in the ass to everyone while I get used to the Tempest! It's my first externally heated vape so I'm just getting used to it, could someone help me troubleshoot to see what is I'm doing wrong. As it is I'm getting basically no vapor so I'm trying to understand what's...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Thanks for all the replies! So should I aim between the 2 lines on the capsule? Or a little higher or lower than that? Thanks for the help, I'll try using a low and slow to gradually heat it. With the wand, is there any real difference between the visual indicator reaching level 3 of the...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    I was usually hitting it quite soon after it reached the visual indicator yes! I'll try let it sit a bit first. Are you supposed to place your finger over the adjustable air hole when inhaling by any chance? I heated it up to three and had my finger held over the air hole by mistake but it was...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    I've been having pretty similar experiences to @Zow237 with the Tempest. I'm using a torch too, have tried holding it a little further back but similar enough results. I've been using a sondiko kitchen torch from Amazon but will purchase a wand when I get paid next. On visual indicator level...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Thanks very much, I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. When the visual indicator goes back to its base level should I look to reheat or will it still be hot enough to draw vapor? I must say I've hit the sweetspot a couple of times and the flavour is absolutely exceptional, I just need...
